Chapter 261: Chapter 261 Qingwu Initiates Embracing Him for the First Time Chapter 261: Chapter 261 Qingwu Initiates Embracing Him for the First Time The geographical location of the Green Garden was somewhat tricky.
Adding to that, Qingwu intentionally installed some natural barriers around the area to prevent accidental entry.
Unless you were an experienced hunter or local resident, most people couldn’t find it even with GPS.
If Qian Duo hadn’t brought those obsessive fans in, they wouldn’t have been able to find Shen Shushan, even if they knew where he was.
It was Su Yurou who gave Qian Duo some money to lead those lawless fans into the village.
Shen Shushan frowned and said, “I thought Yurou wasn’t inherently bad. At first, I thought she was merely upset because Qingwu suddenly came home. Little did I know, she was rotten to the core!”
Chu Yuheng shrugged.
“You thought she wasn’t bad, but it got this grandma into trouble! Let’s just say you paid for being soft-hearted.”
Chu Yuheng was well aware of Shen Shushan’s character—upright, kind, sincere, and somewhat stubborn—qualities that made him versatile in the entertainment industry.
Whenever he encountered stray cats and dogs on set, he’d take them in.
Chu Yuheng couldn’t understand how the Shen family raised someone as kind and soft-hearted as Shen Shushan.
And yet, also raised their eldest into such a black-hearted, shrewd character!
It didn’t seem like they belonged to the same family at all!
Shen Shushan rubbed his face and said, “I won’t let it happen again. Sorry, Qingwu, I didn’t know Yurou was that kind of person…”
Luckily, Su Yurou hadn’t caused his sister any substantial harm!
Qingwu had never taken Su Yurou to heart.
Just a low-grade manipulator.
Shen Shushan looked at the information uncovered on his phone and gasped!
“Yurou even bought false stories about our elder brother having an illegitimate child, causing such a scandal that his girlfriend left him at the time!”
Shen Shushan’s team had dug deep into all the things Su Yurou had done.
The account she used to contact Qian Duo wasn’t hers, and Shen Boyi hadn’t noticed that account’s information before.
Su Yurou was very cautious, registering information with others’ ID cards each time, contacting the marketing accounts and then canceling.
She got caught this time because she used the same marketing account!
Even Su Yurou’s previous attempt to secretly buy hot searches on her alleged engagement with Pei Jue had been exposed together!
Qingwu heard about it for the first time.
“Elder brother’s girlfriend?”
“Yes, our elder brother nearly got married a few years ago, but because of those rumors, it never happened.”
Qingwu was somewhat puzzled, “But someone elder brother would like wouldn’t lose faith in him just because of some rumors.”
“That’s true, but we’re unsure of what exactly happened back then.”
Shen Boyi remained tight-lipped, and the Shen family avoided asking too much for fear it might upset him.
It now appears that everything was somehow entangled with Su Yurou!
“Why did Yurou do this? We must tell elder brother about it!”
After some thought, Shen Shushan dialed Shen Boyi to explain what happened, and sent all the findings to the chat group of the Shen siblings.
After seeing those revelations, surprisingly, the first thing the group did was tag Qingwu, asking if she had been bullied by the film crew!
Shen Shaojia: “Third brother, you’re too useless. After getting to this level, you still almost let Qingwu get bullied! Shame on you!”
Shen Jishi: “Qingwu, are you okay? Third brother, drop by my office when you can and prepare the lawsuit.”
Shen Zhongshuang: “When you get home, make sure to thoroughly check Qingwu’s health! Third brother, you too.”
Shen Shaojia: “Elder brother, do you want to explain to your ex-girlfriend?”
Seeing all of Su Yurou’s previous antics, the Shen siblings fell silent.
Shen Zhongshuang regretted the most, wishing he had shot Su Yurou when he had the chance at Elder Pei Liu’s mansion!
After a long silence, Shen Boyi only expressed concern for Qingwu and Shen Shushan’s well-being.
Shen Boyi: “We’ll handle these matters, don’t tell our parents—they’re out having fun and will worry about us, which might cause problems.”
“Both Qingwu and third brother should get their health checked.”
Worried about his younger siblings, Shen Boyi took a while before posting in the group.
“She’s already married, so these truths no longer matter.”
He thought that those who had chosen not to believe in him years ago would likely see the revelations as disturbing her peaceful life.
During the relationship, the other party kept seeking reassurance of his feelings. In retrospect, it wasn’t that she didn’t believe in the feelings, but she simply didn’t trust him!
Pausing momentarily, Shen Boyi dialed a number from his contact list.
“Mr. Jin, sorry for bothering you, has Qingwu’s exemption request been processed?”
“It’s in process. It seems that it’s not easy over at Dean Ye’s side. Could President Shen spare some time to come by the school?”
Beijing University wasn’t new to students requesting exemptions for various reasons.
It was Jin Qingzhou’s first encounter where Ye Qilan halted the exemption procedure, but Ye Qilan, being both the dean and the acting principal of the design school, needed to sign off!
“Okay, I’ll see you at the school in half an hour.”

Leisure Inn Phoenix Building, Shen Mansion.
After finishing their check-ups and spending half a day listening to Shen Zhongshuang’s endless nagging at the hospital, Qingwu and Shen Shushan were finally released.
Along with Chu Yuheng, who claimed she was scared and needed a night-long chat with Qingwu, they returned to the Shen home.
After getting out of the car and watching Shen Shushan and Chu Yuheng walking through the courtyard, Qingwu halted her steps.
She turned back to look at Pei Jue standing behind her. In his eyes, she saw nothing but herself, full to the brim.
There was an indiscernible trace of grievance and disappointment…
Recalling Chu Yuheng’s words at the hospital that she treated Pei Jue too coldly, not like someone engaged…
A feeling stirred within Qingwu, and she stepped forward to embrace Pei Jue’s lean waist!
For a moment, her essence permeated his world, and with it, the soft body of a young girl enveloped him.
Pei Jue’s eyes filled with ecstatic joy, his mouth curving into a beautiful smile, and his pupils dilated immediately!
This was the first time Qingwu had initiated a hug with him!
“Qingwu…”
Qingwu spoke softly, her voice as tiny as a mosquito’s: “The hug I promised you in the mountains.”
She wasn’t one to break her word, so since she had promised Pei Jue, she wouldn’t go back on it.
With that, she covered her now-red ears and ran past Shen Shushan and Chu Yuheng, heading inside the house.
Shen Shushan asked in confusion, “What’s going on? Why is her face so red? Could Qingwu be coming down with something?”
A cold? She’d never heard of a cold that made the tips of ears go red!
In all the years she’d known her elder brother, Qingwu had never caught a cold.
Chu Yuheng’s mouth twitched as she turned to glance at Pei Jue, who stood there foolishly smiling!
That smile—it was so cheap!
…
Beijing University.
A low-key, luxurious black sedan was parked at the school gate. The car’s interior light was on, casting a warm glow on the man’s distinguished and elegant face, highlighting his chiseled profile.
Jin Qingzhou hurriedly opened the car door and sat inside. “Sorry, President Shen, a meeting got scheduled at the last minute and only just ended.”
Shen Boyi put away the documents beside him, observing her with an unreadable expression.
“What would you like to eat?”
“Huh? I thought we agreed to discuss Student Shen’s exemption request…”
Shen Boyi’s voice carried an authoritative decisiveness.
“Mr. Jin, your oversight has made me wait for two hours. Besides waiting for flights, no one else has kept me waiting this long. You now expect me to discuss matters on an empty stomach?”
